| 20120135046 | CORTICOSTEROID PARTICLES AND METHOD OF PRODUCTION - A new particle morphology of glucocorticosteroids is described. The forms have a particle morphology that is particularly well suited for use in an inhaled corticosteroid drug suspension formulation for delivery from a next generation nebulizer device. Use of the new glucocorticosteroid particles enables enhanced drug delivery efficiency and increased residence time of the delivered drug in the lungs. New methods for producing glucocorticosteroid particles having these specific particle morphologies are also described. The methods provide a simplified, reproducible and scalable particle formation process that can produce glucocorticosteroid particles having a narrow particle size and shape distribution, a low surface energy, a low aspect ratio, uniform particle morphology and a reduced specific surface area. | 05-31-2012 |
| 20120067343 | Aerosol Composition for Administering Drugs - Described here are compositions and methods for the treatment of respiratory conditions using glucocorticosteroids delivered by a next generation nebulizer. The methods administer a therapeutic dose with nebulization time of 2 minutes or less. The faster nebulization time improves patient compliance. | 03-22-2012 |
| 20110155129 | ENHANCED EDUCTOR DESIGN - The present invention provides for an enhanced eductor element that significantly increases the amount of pressure generated at the siphon tube without significantly increasing the flow resistance through the eductor. The invention further provides for breath-actuated inhalation devices comprising the enhanced eductor element as an actuation mechanism. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20110152280 | NOVEL ERGOLINE ANALOGS - Provided herein are novel ergoline derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. In other embodiments, provided herein are methods of treatment, prevention, or amelioration of a variety of medical disorders such as, for example, migraine using the compounds and compositions disclosed herein. In still other embodiments, provided herein are methods of agonizing receptors such as, for example, the 5-HT | 06-23-2011 |
| 20100284940 | METHOD OF THERAPEUTIC ADMINISTRATION OF DHE TO ENABLE RAPID RELIEF OF MIGRAINE WHILE MINIMIZING SIDE EFFECT PROFILE - Pharmaceutical compositions containing dihydroergotamine (DHE) and methods in which DHE is administered to patients for treatment of migraine without side effects or adverse effects are disclosed. Methods for rapid treatment of migraine with DHE are disclosed comprising: dampening the peak plasma concentration (C | 11-11-2010 |
| 20100183725 | MULTIPLE ACTIVE PHARMACEUTICAL INGREDIENTS COMBINED IN DISCRETE INHALATION PARTICLES AND FORMULATIONS THEREOF - The present disclosure describe inhalation particles where each discrete unagglomerated inhalation particle comprising 2 or more active pharmaceutical ingredients. In one embodiment, the inhalation particles comprise a first and a second API where the second API covers, at least partially, and protects the first API from degradation or instability. Inhalation particles comprising a first and a second API as described herein have many advantages over present means of delivering two or more APIs. Formulations comprising such inhalation particles are also described. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100081664 | METHOD OF THERAPEUTIC ADMINISTRATION OF DHE TO ENABLE RAPID RELIEF OF MIGRAINE WHILE MINIMIZING SIDE EFFECT PROFILE - Pharmaceutical compositions containing dihydroergotamine (DHE) and methods in which DHE is administered to patients for treatment of migraine without side effects or adverse effects are disclosed. Methods for rapid treatment of migraine with DHE are disclosed comprising: dampening the peak plasma concentration (C | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100081663 | METHOD OF THERAPEUTIC ADMINISTRATION OF DHE TO ENABLE RAPID RELIEF OF MIGRAINE WHILE MINIMIZING SIDE EFFECT PROFILE - Pharmaceutical compositions containing dihydroergotamine (DHE) and methods in which DHE is administered to patients for treatment of migraine without side effects or adverse effects are disclosed. Methods for rapid treatment of migraine with DHE are disclosed comprising: dampening the peak plasma concentration (C | 04-01-2010 |
